Nine Locks India Pale Ale

When you travel over the holidays, social engagements come up, and sometimes they're so delightful that you only have a few minutes to write up the beer you've been given, lest you miss out on the merriment. Here's one such review:

Nine Locks India Pale Ale came my way during a trip home--a gift from the brilliant and lovely AO. It comes from Dartmouth, Nova Scotia's Nine Locks Brewing Company. It's a 6.9% brew with 70 IBUs. Gold and hazy, it poured with an eggshell head.

It has a rich, sweet, and citrusy nose. The flavour is similar, with satsuma vibes. Pretty decent stuff. Not memorable, but well made.

Rating: 7.5 out of 10.
